[The Great Satan]

The United States has not the slightest interest in empire-building. This is a pathetic jerk-off fantasy of a few morons on the left and the losertarian right, with no existential basis whatsoever.

[Trickyguy]

TheUS has troops in 144 countries, and now we're going to
conquer most of the Middle East. We're an empire, and empires always fall. Get a clue.

The United States has not the slightest interest in empire-building.

Surely you jest.

What category do the individuals talking about using oil revenues to rebuild Iraq fit into? Imperialists or losertarians? What happens to the oil revenues that have been supporting the UN on the cut they take out of sanctions? Do we pick up the tab on that in return for using the oil revenues?

I suppose you have seen the satellite pictures of Iraq rebuilding their WMD facilities. Why don't they take a little side trip from the no-fly patrols and take them out? The Israelis solved their problem with Saddam's nuclear plant in short order without going to war and wasting billions. Why don't we start using our heads for something besides a hat rack?
